Port Elizabeth Homeless Hero Crowdfunding Good Cards

The good things about the rain, a new awesome way to save elephants, stores opening on the streets for those in need, and local paediatric surgeons who have started a non-profit organisation to help sick, underprivileged children… this is your good stuff for this week!

 

The Good Stuff… a weekly South African show on Cliffcentral dedicated to good news & inspirational stories.

Brent Lindeque, the good news guy, has been spreading positivity and embraced the platform offered to him since his South African Random Act of Kindness #neknomination went viral.

He has turned this into a sustainable, continuous discussion around the power of positivity and the change the world needs.

The Good Stuff aims to put a smile on people’s dials and provide a welcome relief from the daily grind.

With compelling and inspirational interviews and a healthy dose of humour, Brent searches for good news stories from around the world every week.

#TheGoodStuff is Cliffcentral’s very own happy hour.

Brent & Kerri kick off the show with their regular catch up, reporting on all the news that really matters while focusing on the top 5 trending good news stories in the world.

The team also get to chat to Kayli Levitan – creative head at M&C Saatchi Abel… the brains behind the Street Store in South Africa – a local initiative to cloth the homeless that was started in 2014 and this year hosted its 500th Street Store event and Surgeons For Little Lives pops in to chat – a group of local paediatric surgeons who have started a non-profit organisation that is focused on saving the lives of sick children by raising the standard of facilities in the state hospitals within the greater Gauteng area.  There are many ways that people can get involved – not all require monetary donations.
